Hi Guys,

I've booked in my car to go to race pace for a few upgrades :wave:

Just like to know if anyone has used Ben's custom clutch, and if so, could you please give me details on it. What type of cluth, HP rating etc...

I was told they are an Extreme Cushion type, dont know if its single plate or not.

Any feedback would be great :)

Thanks,

Husnu (Hus).

The new Xtreme distributor is Race Brakes, North Melbourne. You will be better off to order the clutch through them. I am sure there is nothing different apart from the price.

Send a PM to Chris (Scotsman) as he used the same clutch for his GTR, but bought it direct.

Nothing special about flywheels.

- If you want to maintain the friendliest clutch feel stick with the standard flywheel.

- If you don't care if the feel is slightly more tricky/bitey, but has a little better engine response go for a light-weight flywheel.

Do you know that for 100% certain Al?

If its custom, one assumes its modified.

As Snowy said, and as the forum words go. If its Benno's, it works.

Hus - i would just ask Ben. He would be the best person to talk to about what it is, what it consists of etc.

I think we all know the quality of work Ben does, personally id rather take my car to him knowing he wont stuff you around and you have backup service from an expert with GTR's..

You take out all the guess work if you take it to Racepace.

Any money spent at Racepace is money well spent from my experience..

Cheers

I have one of these Racepace clutches in my car, it drives nice, it holds my 300rwkw+, and they are reasonbly priced, what more do you want?

Take my advice, don't f**k around or it may end up costing you stupid amounts of $. If had of got one of these first off 2 years ago i would seriously be 5k+ better off. Long story...

I have one in my GTR as well, Ben gives you two options, one is a softer one but last longer and the other is obvious but regardless compare to all the BRANDs one, his custom one works as good and doesn't cost an arm or a leg.

I start to wonder if BEN is getting bored for not racing the RPMGTR and starting to speak as he normally doesn't :D.

Will we see you at Sandown ;)?

Pretty sure, i knew Vic, the previous Xtreme distributor :D.

By no means i am talking down Racepace, as Ben excells in this industry and has proven his 'formula' is a very reliable package. But a clutch is a clutch, you buy a good quality item and it sure will be reliable, nothing too special about it.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
